Problem Note 19126: Prompt that the saved task already exists might not appear if you are saving with a different type
 |  |  |  |  |
Within SAS/ASSIST software, if you select File, Save As from the Query, SQL Editor, or Report Engine windows to save an ASSIST entry in the SASUSER.PRIVATE catalog by default and your new entry has the same name as an existing ASSIST entry, you might not receive a prompt warning that you are about to overwrite an existing entry. You will receive a warning prompt if you last saved the same type as you are currently saving. However, if you last saved from one of the three windows that has a different type than the one you are currently saving, then you might not receive the warning prompt and your entry will be overwritten.
